DRAPERY-SUPPORT FOR WINDOWS.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE I-IoRv'rH, citizen of the United States, residing at Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Drapery-Supports for Windows, of which the following is a specification.

This invention consists in a drapery sup port for windows, and in the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of the support full length, and Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of a portion of the support. Fig. 3 is a cross section on the line of the adjusting screws for the extensible bars and Fig. 4 isa perspective view of the body of the support or holder and of the face plate separate and in parallel relation.

The said support comprises a body a preferably of wood and of a length generally to extend across the window, and is provided with two paralled slots, grooves or channels 2, one above the other and spaced apart by an uncut portion of said body and a face plate 3 of wood or metal is fastened by screws 4 through the center of the said body. The said screws are long enough to secure the body a to the window frame or casing. Parallel extensible bars b and Zi occupy the said slots or channels from opposite ends, and are in pairs for each channel and fastened in adjustment by set screws 5. The said bars are square in cross section as herein shown but both the said bars and said channels may be of any regular or equivalent formation and which will prevent the bars from turning or rotating in the said channel.

The bars b are each provided with arms 6 at their ends adapted to curtain poles thereon while the bars b have relatively Specification of Letters Patent.

A drapery support for windows having a body and two sets of bars adjustable lengthwise therein, said bars constructed to prevent axial rotation in said body and. each set of bars provided with forwardly projecting arms at their ends, the arms on one set of bars being of greater length than the arms on the other set.

3. In window drapery support, a body having parallel channels in its front one above the other, a pair of bars adjustable in each channel and each bar having an arm on its outer end, the arms on the upper pair of bars being of greater length than those on the lower pair of bars and constructed at their outer ends to support a curtain pole thereon.

4. In drapery supports for windows, a body having parallel channels one above the other, a face plate covering said channels and a set of screws through said plate and body and of a length adapted to fix the support upon a window frame.
